As bad as Y&R has become...it still feels like a well-made soap. I've come to this conclusion after two weeks of the internet soaps. Sorry/not sorry (but Y&R's always been better produced than all of the other soaps).

I'm watching today's ep right now because I used to be a huge, HUGE Michael and Lauren fan and I wanted to see how this reveal played out. So far, so good. Michael's so pulling a Jack right now, he's so completely disgusted with Lauren. I love it!

ITA. Up until the begging of this year I thought B&B was the best produced soap and enjoyed the visual aspects even though I can't stand the stories but then this year Y&R visually started looking better like wardrobe improved and I went from finding wadrobe on this show tacky to thinking Y&R has the best wardrobe of all the soaps. Villy's tacky house became a beautiful home, they added another restaurant so everyone didn't have to be at Gloworm. Though there's still alot of sets that need fixing like that one ugly area in the hospital, and Adam's crypt needs to go back to Days of Our Lives, Crimson Lights needs a redesign

Nick became a real creep to me when he cheated on Sharon with her best friend Grace. Then, later, he was so cruel to Sharon when she had a fling with that Diego guy. He acts like a lying hypocrite. I see zero appeal in his character. Whatever external assets he might have are totally cancelled out by his creepy personality and actions.

    • I don't mind Dani in this mode, she fits best in a supporting role vs the main attraction. Dani being thrown into the Doug story just reeks of Reva Shayne in the late 90s/early 00s where she was involved in every storyline.  Nothing makes me hate a character more then when a writer/producer shoves a character down the viewers throats. There was a brief scene between Pamela/Doug/Vanessa where Vanessa was being Vanessa.. and Pamela was giving her a look that wasn't too friendly (not a look of dislike, more a look of someone that is looking down on someone else). I think the divorce/split between Jon and Cady was friendly/ not messy.
    • Ashley and Derek are boring but Derek can do so much better than Ashley

    • Actually I think Ashley has OCPD, not OCD.  OCPD: Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder OCD: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Different diagnoses which unfortunately have similar names. OCPD: https://iocdf.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/OCPD-Fact-Sheet.pdf OCPD and OCD are often confused in general conversation, which is totally understandable, even though they are different. And it doesn't really matter here, since this is a fictional character... and the show is highlighting Ashley's obsession with controlling every aspect of things.
    • Her voice reminds me somewhat of the late Carrie Donovan (best known for Old Navy commercials).. but she was big in the fashion world I believe.

      date: Monday, May 19 | Ron Carlivati, Danielle Paige | Shelley Curtis Dani and Pamela are a hoot together at the casino; they're really giving me "go girl, get yours" vibes! Katherine is totally on the warpath and is pushing every single male away. Dana is single-handedly selling her daughter out, with the unknown help of Katherine's secret recording. I like seeing both Andre and Ted giving Eva the kind of family she never had with Dana. Oh, is Dani catching onto things where Douglas is concerned? Interesting. Derek is a moron, and Ashley continues to give me a "type A" personality, with a lot of anal retentiveness/OCD. And ew, he's a trash eater. So gross. Oh, Diego, go get it! Why do I feel like Pamela vs. Vanessa is about to become a thing! But get IT, Pamela! Get IT! Not Dana thinking she knows the law when Jacob checked her immediately. Tomas is a smooth talker, and I love it. Hell, even I would fall for him easily. So, Tomas went into the Navy to put himself through law school. Quite interesting. What a nice backstory. The sexual innuendo between Joey and Vanessa while Douglas is listening on is hilarious. It's very obvious Pamela and Vanessa are not friends at all, and that's something I'd love to see play out at some point. Yes, Derek, she wants your ass out. I want your ass out. I'd be throwing you, your ugly-ass named chair and everything else OUT of MY apartment! So, Vanessa let the cat out of the bag. That's interesting timing, but Douglas is still lying to her. Notes: Again, both Jon Lindstrom (Joey) and Cady McClain (Pamela) are in scenes together yet did not directly interact. Kudos to them for showing up and putting the professional work in.
